Not really true. Although you might theory-craft as well as some high division players, you have never played at the top and don’t know what it’s like. All high div players know what it’s like in the low divisions because we came from there. Different things work at the top and bottom because of the skill gap, so there is really a big difference in the effect things like unlocks and novelty strats can have.

Doesn’t really apply to this aids discussion but you shouldn’t assume that you know as well as better players. There’s a reason they’re better and 80% of the time it’s because they understand the game more thoroughly. If their logic seems flawed to you but everyone else in the upper echelons agrees, you’re just missing some key understanding.

I wish to make a point here.

Although I don’t like the higher division playrs calling out lower division players opinions as not worth listening to I’m afraid it’s a very good point.

The reason higher division players are higher division players is either because they have a better understanding of the game, have been playing for a long time and therefore have a better understanding of the game or they have ridiculous good dm and therefore understand how silly weapons can impact the game in the hands of someone with good aim.

As elitist as it appears its also true. If you can’t see that or understand it then I’m sorry, but you’re wrong.

perhaps I should clarify, I don’t claim to know more than the high div players at all, but I know that saying shit like 6v6 soldiers not having the escape plan because they’re new or the market gardener being op as hell is bullshit and high div players shouldn’t get defensive with div call outs because of lack of actual arguements if someone is going to correct them

the fuck you doing in low div if your understanding of the game is so fucking superb

when I was bringing players from pubs to increase the number of 6s players in the portuguese community, the biggest problem of all was the lack of unlocks.. a lot of players were accustomed to play with non-vanilla wepons. Although they accept a couple of changes in their playstyle, using only vanilla wepons during the games (this was at a time when even the equalizer and gunboats were forbidden) was too much for some of them.. so yeah unlocks can bring new players to comp, however I understand the purists who want everything vanilla, they believe that unlocks can bring unfair advantages for certain teams, but meh idk. When I start playing 6s, bonk, force-a-nature etc were allowed and the game was enjoyable, we could block the combo to get out of the house in badlands using the bonk :P fun fun fun

This comment shows why etf2l has failed when it comes to unlocks… They should have done this couple of seasons ago. Split the divs and use lower divs as testing rats to see if unlocks are as bad as higher div players claim.

Agree.
:D Should add Market Gardner ..

Ha ha. Calm down little child. I never said anything about my own opinion. Was just making a point. May I suggest some anger management classes?

I’m probably atleast 10 years older than you.

And if you actually could read, you would see that I was agreeing with you.
